Abstract
Inflation is a critical indicator of an economy’s health, reflecting the changes in the general price level and the cost of living. In India, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) is used to measure price inflation which is largely based on the Laspeyre’s price index and measures the economy’s cost of living. The CPI basket comprises 299 items of which vegetables account for a weight of 6.04% in the total basket.
